I am new to the world of cherry heads and bought a couple of babies in mid November. Well today as I was feeding them I was inspecting their shells and the bottom of the shells are worrying me. They are dark and looks like they are pitting. Wanted to confirm shell rot so I can start treatment.
They are in a plastic tote with coco fiber soil and sphagnum moss. I mist it 2-3 times daily to keep humidity up. I think that is the issue so i am going to put them in a 60 gallon tank with a solid lid and switch to cypress mulch to maintain humidity w/o having the sub-straight as moist.
They also have a ceramic heat light to help keep temps up, a UVB florecent bulb, and a repti basking sun lamp.
Any insight on what to do to make them better is appreciated. Thanks
